Top Choice Gaming - Redlands
Redlands' premier destination for Magic: The Gatering, Pokémon, One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh and more!
Top Choice Gaming is my new go-to! From the moment I walked in, the staffed greeted me and made me feel welcome. I picked up two cards at great prices, and the pod I played with was super helpful and fun. The cashier was friendly and didn’t rush me out—I felt like a valued guest. I’ll definitely be coming back, and now that I’m moving, I’ve found my new home store to play at.

This place is fantastic for playing and connecting with others. There's a solid variety of TCG materials, collectibles, and a welcoming community of players that really makes the space enjoyable. However, on the buy/sell/trade side: I'd advise caution. Prices on their product is consistently marked above market value, and trade offers typically come in at around 60% of market value—sometimes closer to 50% if you're looking for cash. For example, I was quoted a trade value of $180 for an item priced at $300 in their own store. Additionally, you’ll often be required to come in person for item evaluations, which can feel inconvenient and somewhat frustrating—especially when the trade values feel low or lack transparency. With parking being an additional challenge. If this part of the business becomes more community-focused, with clearer pricing and more fair trade practices, I’d be happy to revisit and revise this review.
Purchased a sealed ETB from the storefront. When I got home and opened it, I noticed the box was damaged. It’s unclear whether it had been tampered with or resealed before I purchased it. I spoke with an employee who claimed they don’t buy or resell ETBs. However, based on the condition of the box and the contents inside, there is concern that the store may be opening boxes and scanning packs to remove higher-value cards before resealing and selling them. While this can’t be confirmed, the situation raises serious questions about product integrity.
